Follow up to the whole Dockers thing

So, a week or so after emailing them, I finally got a reply from someone:

Hi,

*rolls eyes* So they're trying to give men a "reason to love their khakis" by telling them that without them, they're androgynous wussy boys with no power and the world is going to hell for want of a strong (male) hand at the helm. Bite me, Dockers.

Also, if people want to add their comments, since Marketing pays such close attention to public feedback, the email address is: info@dockers.com
